Sorry about that last tab, I've gone over it and fixed all the errors that I missed.
Also Chords may not be on the right time. I dont know why it didnt let me do it right
last time, but I can't seem to find out this prob.
Cheers!
The strumming is sightly weird but if you sit down and play along with the song you'll
it. The Chords written are pretty well aligned with there time (with the words) but I
still recomend playing along with the song to get it down "perfectly".
Another thing, one the Chord chart it list most of the chords in there open form. This
fine, but in the music video and live you can see the band using mostly bar/power chords.
Verse 1:
CmGBb
After all these implements and texts designed by
FEbF
intellects we're vexed to find evidently there's
Bb
still so much that hides.
CmGBb
and though the saints dub us divine in ancient
FEbF
fading lines their sentiment is just as hard to
Bb
pluck from the vine.
Chorus:
AbF
I'll try hard not to pretend
AbFG
allow myself no mock defence as I
step into the night.
Verse 2:
CmGBb
Since I don't have the time nor mind to figure
FEbD
out the nursery rhymes that helped us out in
Bb
making sense of our lives.
CmGBbF
The cruel, uneventful state of apathy releases me
EbFBb
I value the but I won't cry every time one's
wiped out.
Chorus:
AbF
I'll try hard not to give in
AbFG
batten down to fare the wind
AbF
rid my head of this pretense
AbFG
allow myself no mock defence as I
step into the night.
